Dozens of
Maine towns have libraries,
museums and historical societies
with rich collections of
photographs, documents and other
material that paint a vivid portrait
of the state's history.

Procter history, warts and all
With the same impulse that many in town will soon
face, I grabbed my copy of Procter & Gamble Co.'s
new corporate history and immediately thumbed
through the index to "Jager, Durk."
Jager is the former chairman and chief executive at
P&G who retired under pressure in June 2000 in the
darkest moment in recent P&G history. You'll find two
pages about the Jager debacle in Rising Tide, which
Harvard Business School Press is publishing in July.

Having skin problems?
The cure is in a raw onion, sprinkled with a little salt. Just make sure
you eat it and don't rub it on your face. Afterward, you can freshen
your breath by brushing your teeth with a mixture of water, honey and
muriatic acid.

First Goldschmidt records to archives, access dispute remains
By Associated Press
Jun 03, 2004 - 08:09:44 am PDT
SALEM -- The first 37 requested boxes of former Gov. Neil Goldschmidt's official records
were sent Wednesday to the State Archives from private storage, under an order from
Secretary of State Bill Bradbury.
But a lawyer for the disgraced former governor, who recently acknowledged having sex
with a 14-year-old girl in the 1970s, said Goldschmidt wants his attorneys to review the
remaining material -- some 219 boxes worth -- before turning it over to the state.

Upper Nazareth engineer urges tidier zoning records
David Harte advises computerizing the regulatory process.
By Nancy Averett
Of The Morning Call
The Upper Nazareth Township engineer says the township's zoning records are a
mess and has urged the board to hire someone to organize the paperwork and
enter all zoning data into a computer database.
David Harte sent a letter to the Board of Supervisors last week, detailing some of
the problems that his office — Harte Engineering Inc. — has encountered since
it took over the township's zoning services in January. Before that time, the
zoning officer was Walter Davidge.

Officials: After court ruling records
should be forthcoming
By Chris Norwood and David Atchison

TALLADEGA — After a two year legal battle, it appears that The Daily Home may
finally be granted access to personnel records of three employees of the Water and
Sewer Board who were fired when more than $90,000 in funds disappeared.
At the time of the theft, the board and its attorneys refused to disclose the records,
arguing that the board was not subject to the state Open Records Act and if it was,
the records fell under recognized exceptions to that law.

You have faithfully burned photos, music, home movies or important documents to CD or

But will you?
It all depends on how you care for them, government scientists at the National Institute for

Clinic first in county to go electronic with
records
Tammy McPherson THE DAILY HERALD
Because Grant Simons has had troubles with high
blood pressure, he's been visiting his doctor more
frequently.
As Dr. Rob Corniea met with the Payson resident
Wednesday, he did not make notes in the
traditional doctor's chart. Instead, Corniea typed
them into an electronic medical records system,
which is used by each of the 59 independent
physicians at the Central Utah Multi-Specialty
Clinic.

Fine-Tuning Your Filter for Online Information
By JOHN R. QUAIN
Published: June 3, 2004
N the World Wide Web, people can track political polemics,
movie star malapropisms and financial fiascos. The trouble is,
hopping from site to site in search of the latest Mel Gibson bon
mot can waste hours. Now there's a tool that promises to
automatically capture just the information you want, when you want,
from the Web.
Called R.S.S. (the initials are variously said to stand for Rich Site
Summary, Really Simple Syndication and more obscure
formulations), this increasingly popular online tool turns a morass of
disparate information sources into an automatically generated and
neatly organized index of the latest articles and postings.
